“This place is amazing! I really love the bread and olive oil they bring to the table. The food is delicious, and the atmosphere is very nice, calm, and romantic. A great place for a date or to just enjoy great food. The staff is friendly and attentive, and Bernard is always making sure you're taken care of.

I had a combination of shrimp and scallops in a spicy cagun sauce. Everything was great. I have never had scallops in a seafood boil and I would highly recommend it.”
Restaurants with Delivery
“The atmosphere is fun and colorful, and the food was flavourful and delicious. I had the Watermelon tea today, which was perfect and not too sweet. McKenna was extremely attentive and friendly. ?”
“My wife and I took our kids here and we absolutely loved it. There is an excellent family that owns it--they are so nice. Enjoyed talking to them and loved the food. We went in to get a small, late lunch, but also got the small passion fruit pie, and now we are really looking forward to trying a lot of the other baked goods/sweets. Very good!”
“The staff greeted us upon walking in and was super helpful at check out. Cookies were so pretty and super delicious as well!! My family really enjoyed the lucky charms cookie!!”
“Visited on a trip to see my kids. I’m picky and honestly, hard to impress. Great harvest bread co. Fabulous! The atmosphere, the staff, the vibe , and the bacon cheddar bread…… best I’ve ever had. The sample slice was the reason I bought the loaf. Do yourself a favor and visit this bakery.”
“Loved it ...really liked their 1/2 sweet 1/2 unsweet peach tea!...MUSIC was poppin?... played amine on the TVs and also played mid 2000s music loved the atmosphere!”
“We dined at Twelve for the first time tonight. We were celebrating the first anniversary of our first date. The steaks melted in our mouths. Sarah our server was totally fantastic! And the 5 layer cake was heaven. They totally made our special night that much more memorable.”

“Hands down the best coffee in the Tyler area. The baristas are super friendly, knowledgeable, and very good at what they do. Latte art is on point and the espresso has great flavor. You can tell they really take pride here in what they make. I really can't say I've found a coffee shop this good outside the PNW. I would come here every day if I lived closer!”
“Finally got to try this place! First, the atmosphere and the pastries are absolutely beautiful. The business is very dog-friendly, with special treats and a patio. I had a vanilla crème beignet doughnut (that was the size of my face!), an earl grey lavender macaron, a coffee, and took a box of macarons to go. The coffee was mid, but the customer service and pastries certainly make up for it! The ladies behind the counter were so friendly and helpful. Can’t wait to visit again & bring friends.”
“IMO, this is some of the best BBQ in East Texas. I think we have been here around 12-15 times, and the barbeque is always cooked to perfection. I usually get the brisket sandwich, and my wife actually gets the tacos. The pulled pork, slaw, motherclucker, brisket, sausage, chicken, and turkey are delicious. They have a new shrimp taco that is really good, and they now have mac n' cheese, which is really good as well. Parking can be a pain, but you can also park around back. This place gets crowded, so I try to arrive before noon.Now that I think about it, I've never had the ribs and can't wait to try them next!✌️”
“Great little drive thru coffee hut!! Service was perfect and the coffee was delicious! I got absolutely spoiled in Washington and Oregon, but this place would fit right in up there.”
“Had to run my mom to the hospital a block over for a procedure and this place was convenient. They have real cold brew! Tastes good, service is fast and friendly and its a neat place. Check them out!”

“I've been to this pizza place multiple times and have never been let down. The pizza is amazing and absolutely loaded down with toppings. The crust is just the right thickness. The sauce is not too much & has great flavor. If I could give more then 5 stars I would. The employees are also very polite and courteous. The cost is right on the mark with what you receive.”

“Every time I come through Tyler I grab my high school friend and we goto Shoguns. It's consistent, it's delicious, and there is always a show.It's changed location over the decades, but it's managed to keep it's quality. We get f'd up on saki, sushi, steak, and conversation with strangers.There is one shortcoming:When you ask for a rare steak, they give you a medium steak. Every time.What's the secret bribe or message to get a real rare steak?”

Everything was excellent from the food to the service. They had a wide assortment of delicious food including appetizers of homemade donut holes the were mouth watering. Thanks to the staff to there attention to detail, it made our unexpected stop a nice surprise.”
“UPDATE FROM MY 1ST REVIEW OF POTPOURRI HOUSE FROM 5 YEARS AGO... We were so excited to come back to Tyler for a visit and find that The Potpourri House was open. It had been updated and made more trendy, and although we missed the pretty water fountain inside the eating area (the sound of the fountain ⛲️ was calming) we liked the new updates.I had the portobello mushroom soup, Strawberry salad and chicken salad sandwich trio which was absolutely ?! The soup had lots of mushrooms and had a great flavor. My daughter had the French dip sandwich and fries. The sandwich was piled high with tender meat and served with au joux to dip it in. We had the spiced tea again and although it seemed a little sweeter than last time, I simply asked our nice waitress to put a bit of regular unsweetened tea in with the spiced tea and it was perfect.After lunch, we of course went to walk around the beautiful shop. The ladies were very friendly and it was fun seeing all the colorful earrings, dresses, etc.This is one of our favorite places in Tyler.1st REVIEW FROM 5 YEARS AGO... The spiced tea was absolutely delicious and the staff was friendly. The store was adorable with a plethora of wonderful gift items.Kid-friendliness: There is a kids menu along with plenty of appetizers, sides or smaller size dishes that would suite for kids of all ages.”
“Absolute trash, will not be eating here again. Very little meat to plate ratio. Looks abandoned when you enter its not a welcoming atmosphere. More like indian food than greek food it thats what your looking for no taziki of any kind no dressings just ketchup and garbage wont be eating here again. I wouldve askked for a refund and ate somewhere else but i was with my freind. You get a small bottle of soda for three dollars and a small plate of food for 14. Not worth the money or disappoinment. It was 40 dollas for two plates and two drinks.”
“One of the best meals we have had out in a long time. The pork chop was outstanding. The brick street board was exceptional. The Death by Chocolate cake amazing and it was the best dessert to finish off the meal. The music set the tone for a great atmosphere. The staff were attentive and knowledgeable.”

I would recommend Jucys to everyone, their burgers are always fresh and delicious and the dining areas are always clean. The employees are always welcoming and courteous . Will be back next time we are in the area. Almost forgot to mention the beans they have at the drink/condiment station, they are excellent and would recommendthem also. Overall a Great place to grab a quick bite to eat.”

“My family and I placed a complicated order at this Whataburger while driving home from Virginia. Curtis, the Whataburger employee taking our order was fast, professional, detail oriented, and got everything right which stood out from all of the other restaurants we visited on our trip so much so that I took the time to write this. Great job!!!”
“Today. Red Springs, Chapel Hill, and Winona fire crews met up for breakfast. We collectively chose Whataburger at 271and the loop extention in Tyler. Our experience was unmatched. We where completely satisfied with the service, food, and overall environment. A special thanks goes out to Ms. Casey and Ms. Norma for occomidating our every need from the time we entered the building until our departure. Thank you all for being great people. Your kindness really helped us start our day off on a positive note. Respectfully submitted by Lt. Crumpton Smith County ESD2”
“The man who checked me out, Brandon was very kind. The service was quick and the facility was very clean. Only 4 stars on food because my fries were soggy. Overall good experience and friendly staff.”
“Omg I didn't even have time to grab my straw and drink before my hamburger was ready. Was burned and my 93 yr old friend I bought with .e her cheese wasn't even melted. Bad food ”
“Me and my boyfriend went to this location for the first time and the place was awesome. Very clean and wonderful service. Everyone greeted us with welcoming and loving energy. Abraham took very good care of us. He wasn't just taking our order, we definitely made sure that we were getting taken care of properly. Man deserves a raise! Thank you Abraham! ?? ”
“Whataburger is a place I go when I need to be caressed in my nourishment time. I was greeted nicely and served gracefully. The food was sooo good. It was just what my taste bud and tummy needed. It was worth the drive and money.”
“I go in early early in the mornings due to my schedule and the workers are super nice! Beats the heck out of the McDonald's next door! Food comes out fast and hot. McDonald's lost my business to them permanently this morning! If you drive a vehicle too big for the drive through you can depend on the lobby being open......unlike there neighbors..”
“Come on now it's whataburger...even when it's meh, it's delicious. One thing definitely worth mentioning, is at this location they have a new assistant manager, that girl is awesome! She could give her own college course on how to actually care about the public as a customer service person. Keep up the great attitude and service young lady! Hope whataburger is paying attention to you.”
“Went thru the drive thru tonight and the guy taking our order was very kind and apologetic that it would be a minute for us to get fresh chicken strips. Then the lady who brought the food out was also apologizing that I had to wait for FRESH food. She even said they threw in a few extra strips for the wait. Will definitely eat here again.”
“It's fast and cheap. It does get crowded during lunch and dinner hours, but that's only because it's part of a truck stop. Customer service is always good.”
“I don't know who the new manager is at the gresham store, but the place has definitely turned around. One good burger could be a fluke. But I have had 5 consecutive orders fast, hot, and fresh! The attitudes of the employees taking my order were impeccable. Even talked me into trying the banana pudding shake , which is my new favorite. The store was clean too. I am so thankful you finally got a manager in the store that was capable of pulling it all together. You've made a regular customer out of me!”
“Shout out to the BEST Night manager on 4-8-2411:00 PM . Online order for pick up...Absolutely the best customer service and HE cooked our meal too !!Omelets, pancakes, Hashbrowns, & bacon.All cooked to order and delicious !!! Thank you Sir !”

We booked The Cellar in the basement, and we loved the privacy that afforded us.”

I highly recommend combo fajitas and queso blanco for your next party. Leah was awesome in coordinating everything and the young man delivering food was so nice and helpful. I’ve only completed a few reviews before, but I made sure to take the time to share how good this experience was. Thank you Javi’s! My fav in the restaurant is Javi’s Taxi and mini brisket tacos. ?”

“My favorite dish there is chile chorizo, 100 % recommended, coffee is super good ,morning meditation juice is the bomb.I always get pancakes with pecan and chocolate chips.”
“Amazing food and customer service. Best falafel I’ve had in this area. I highly recommend trying the falafel and fries, as well as, their pita bread and hummus. Their hummus is unlike any other I’ve had before… delicious and addictive. The fries are perfection every time I go…. Fresh and seasoned just right. The staff is super nice and the vibe is chill. I have recommended this place to many and it’s always a hit. I wish I could show pictures of the food, but honestly it’s hard to resist demolishing it every time. You take one bite and that’s it— carried away. ?”
“We were at Jelly Stone, looking for a restaurant to get lunch, Ruby's was a bit far but had good reviews. I'm glad we came here. The shrimp cocktail, birria tacos, and enchiladas were so delicious. Also, the service and prices are amazing.”
“Solid Mexican food here in Tyler. A little on the greasier side, but the flavors are fantastic. Lunch rush can be a bit slow sometimes, but I always call ahead now and never have any issues.They have great food and fantastic salsa (if you like spicy). I've been going here for over a year regularly and would definitely recommend it!”
“Love this place! Pizza is amazing and you can't leave without a cannoli. Love the folks there and we always enjoy how well they treat us. We think it's the best pizza in Tyler.”
“We got lost in tha sauce! Best catfish in town! I had to get some hot water cornbread. This place is the real deal. Great atmosphere with fun, friendly people. Uncle Jack threw in some wings with the sleazy sauce knowing it would bring us back for more. #”
“MUST TRY! Hands down!! I just left maybe 10 minutes ago! I had to pull over to eat after I had a small taste! Their meat is tender and full of flavor so much that I didn’t drink anything after! When I walked in I was immediately greeted and I told them this was my first time and they had no problem going over their menu! The customer service was beyond great, one gentleman got me to try a meat I would have never tried and it was GREAT! I will be going back whenever I’m in Tyler! Very happy about finding a new taco place!!!”

Drive-Thru Restaurants
“I love to come in January, the cookie Casanova is where it's at. I love that I can get different sizes depending on how I feel. It's always fresh and so tasty. So thankful to have Andy's in Tyler!”
“This is the first review I’ve ever given to a business, and it’s only because these 5 stars are so greatly deserved. I’ve been eating here for consistently over a year now and every time I walk in I’m greeted by the warmest, friendliest smiles. The service is unmatched, and it all starts with manager of this store, Luis. Seriously the best guy. A couple weeks ago my girl ordered online and I went to pick it up for her. Of course I didn’t check the bag first, and of course this would be the one time out of 1,000 the order was wrong. Disappointed, I called up there to see if they could just comp what they’d forgotten, but the Piada team took it a step further and refunded the entire cost of the meal (something they absolutely did not have to do.) This is the type of business you feel good about spending your money at, and overall there’s not a better bang for your buck as far as quality food goes in Tyler. Check them out, you won’t be disappointed”
“Our first time to visit today was fantastic! We were greeted with a friendly smile and kind souls. As a bonus, we had some pretty awesome cookies to boot. I very much enjoyed that they weren’t overly sweet!”
“I’m a burger hound. This is THE burger joint. I stop by once or twice a week and get the same exact meal every time. Whenever I call ahead, he hears my name and asks if I want my usual, then it’s ready to go when I get there. The cajun spices add the tiniest kick and powerful flavor to everything on the menu. Quit settling for overly processed, mass produced garbage and go get a quality meal with quality ingredients prepared by a quality man.”
“The Brussel sprouts are sooo yummy!! Even if you don’t like Brussel sprouts, you’ll enjoy these. I love this place! Being that the food is cooked made-to-order, you have to expect it to take a little longer and sometimes ask for the tortillas on the side so they don’t get soggy-this is not a complaint. I appreciate it being fresh. I love my local taqueria <3”
“Found this ridiculously high rating spot on Tyler and decided to give it a go. Not a fancy place, but oh boy, its a hidden gem. One of the best Japanese food I have ever experienced.If you are in or around Tyler, you gotta eat here. This spot was in top 100 restaurants in Texas in 2023, and for all the right reasons.”
“The food is always fresh and the customer services are excellentKid-friendliness: The children are all smiles in thereWheelchair accessibility: Roll right on in there”

“I love the sports bar atmosphere. The different varieties of food, is enormous. TV’s everywhere, so you can definitely watch your favorite sport, while enjoying your favorite adult beverage. Highly recommend.”
“Just wanted to commend the young African American guy that was working lobby today. They where packed and he was still cleaning tables running orders and helping take orders all with a smile on his face. In this day and age that’s not something you see everyday and I hope his managers/supervisors see all the hard work he’s doing hopefully he’s up for a management position soon!”

“I love this place, the food is so good, fresh and well seasoned. Chicken Fried steak is the best, I really love the loaded baked potato with chicken. It's my favorite! The complimentary beans and ice cream are so delicious! Customer service is great!Parking: Parking is crowded, because it's in a popular shopping center. I do recommend to park away from the building, so that your car will not get hit or scratch.Kid-friendliness: My kids love the grilled cheese sandwich and hamburgers.”
“The food is great here. They pay extremely close attention to detail.The service is well above average. I rarely give 5 stars for service anyways.This is a family owned place, instagram worthy, and they really care about your experience here.If you haven’t tried takara you are missing out on one of Tyler Texas’s hidden treasures.Eat here, support local, and enjoy an amazing meal.Highly recommend almost everything on their menu.”
“I am a Very picky eater. If I am spending my money I want it to be on the best food. This little jewel is tucked in a strip mall beside Grand Slam and the food, cleanliness and service is top notch. No matter what day or hour I come I have not been disappointed.”
“I enjoy Sunday night Karaoke! The DJ, Suttle is very fun and does his best to be fair with song lineup. Drew is by far my favorite bartender and is always ON TOP of things when it comes to drink orders. 10/10 will always go back.”
“Wonderful seafood place. Would definitely go back. We did the Cajun mild seasoning on a boil with shrimp, mussels, corn, sausage, potatoes, king crab, and crawfish. The seasoning was great, not too spicy. Very filling. There were two of us and we couldn’t finish it. The corn was sweet corn. Plenty of space, tables, restrooms were clean. Lots of parking.”
“We celebrated my daughter's 18th birthday here and reserved the large private room. We had about 30 people and they served us very well. So happy everything turned out perfect for her.”
“First time at this location. Quaint, and quiet as we were the first arrivals on a Saturday before the evening crowd started coming in. Good selection of their own locally-brewed craft beers. Nice place to chill /hang out in the downtown Tyler Square.”
“The sauces served with the dishes were delicious. We started with the calamari- remoulade and cocktail sauce. We shared a bowl of chili (just ok) and the fried catfish with onion rings. The catfish was excellent (as was the sauce served with it). The onion rings were huge! We finished things off with a slice of key lime pie that was just the right balance of tart lime and sweet graham cracker crust.”
“Not only is this one of the only if not only places around with organic/clean food served. The owner and staff are the kindest in town. Our favorite place to eat hands down.”

“Incredible service, the owners were so friendly and welcoming.They are so knowledgeable on the products, and personalized what I needed for my macro/dietary needs!The shakes are delicious and the teas gave me amazing energy without a “crash!”10/10 recommend!!!”
“My wife and I eat here for lunch at least 3 times a month! Always a great place to go and catch up during the work week. Always exceptional food, and GREAT service!”
“A blast as always, well priced and fair especially with the Chuck E Cheese reward app, the Manager was the sweetest, he specially showed all his pins to the twins, clean, fun, just wished all the games actually worked!”
“Great smoothies! A little pricey. I have a suggestion to the employees… never forget that the customer is the only reason you exist! Smile more and do not be afraid to make eye contact and use the aforementioned smile. Don’t just call out the name and place the product on the counter and turn your back and walk away! Make eye contact and smile and say thank you!Your response to me explains everything! It’s ok though I’ll do your training for you because obviously you do not have the intellect.Thanks for changing your reply to my review. Your previous response to me and the previous review before mine of “glad to be part of helping us RULE THE DAY” was a very ignorant response to paying customers and constructive criticism.”
“I ordered online at 10:30 and set a time of noon to pick it up, upon my arrival a little after noon it wasn't ready my order was lost. They did hurry to fix my order compensated me with a brownie. All in all good people just not organized.”
“It is a relaxing, fun filled place with a wonderful atmosphere, extraordinary staff who have become my family, delicious food, fantastic performances by talented musicians, and a true home away from home.”
“We had a big group of 18 for a Celebration of Life dinner at Pasado's on Gentry. Amanda the manager was very good about scheduling for us and making sure everything was in order. Amber our waitress and her assistant had everything ready for us. Amber did a fantastic job handling 18 people. Our group had a great time thanks to Amber and other staff.”
“We went and had dinner and our waitress Mary was very kind and sweet. The food was great and the drinks were amazing. One of the managers Heather came around to check on us and to make everything was good. Great service and great people.”
“Breakfast is great here!! been a few times… but dinner was ok. (Visited 2/13/24) Went with a party of 8 and 4 of us fell ill a few hours after. I believe we got food poisoning. Meatloaf, burgers, a wrap and country fried steak is what was ordered.”
“My husband and I ? Mexican food and we are always on the hunt for the next place to try. Cantina Laredo has your typical menu items but reimagined with quality ingredients. The salsa is a perfect example. It's awesome, has a smoky and spicy flavor but isn't the typical red color. The queso with beef is a must before hand. And if Emily is working, you'll not only have a great meal but your service will be next level.”
“Seriously the best service ever. Casey and Jennifer were incredibly patient and helpful with my wife’s questions before she ordered. We’ve been here twice in the last few weeks and we love coming here!!”
“Our first time here. Impressive compared to almost all other Tyler locations.Architecture, interior design & functionality as a food establishment is simply UNMATCHED in Tyler area. Don’t miss opportunity to take in the lake views, the entertainment venues and SUPERB BAR!We’ll be back for BRUNCH soon !S. StarkFormerly of Houston, Texas”
“I was in town for business and stumbled into Salt Grass Steakhouse and was so happy I did! The food and service were outstanding. Josh G took such good care of us and we enjoyed talking to him very much. The steaks were perfect and highly recommend the bacon wrapped bbq shrimp!!! Hope to come back!”
“We went here while on vacation. It was ok food. I had to wait 35 minutes just to get 3 drinks while watching the waitress serve 10 others. Finally I saw a manager and asked about it. I saw my waitress running to get my drinks finally. At the same time, the other serve brought my food and dumped the sandwich in the table. I had to ask the manager to repkace it. At first, he was reluctant to do it. SMH... he finally did what was right. But this was a fun place to hang out.”
“Excellent Thai food, especially the curries. There is probably not another restaurant in Tyler that offers more options and is more accommodating to customers on a vegan or plant-based diet. One of our favorite spots in town.”
“Our server I can't think of his name but he was good. He made sure our drinks was full he always check on us very polite. The food was amazing it was brought out within 15mins of ordering.”

“Wonderful local owned pizza / pasta restaurant. Probably the best tasting pizza in town. You can order by the slice just like in NYC. Large portions on pasta dishes. Don't forget the deserts, they're as good as most fancy Italian restaurants in NYC.”

“Meeting room available to rent by the hour - I like to find unique spots for team meetings and this space was perfect! Great rates, easy to work with, and having easy access for us to grab a good coffee is a HUGE plus for our team! Also, free parking garage directly across the street. Thanks again!”
“Our family which was a party of 8 decided to eat at this amazing restaurant. Our waitress Sydney was very attentive and on point. Our appetizers, drinks, and food were all excellent to the taste. No complaints at all nothing but good vibes and we enjoyed ourselves.”
“This place is amazing! I really love the bread and olive oil they bring to the table. The food is delicious, and the atmosphere is very nice, calm, and romantic. A great place for a date or to just enjoy great food. The staff is friendly and attentive, and Bernard is always making sure you're taken care of. My only complaint is that I brought my wife here on a date once, and now she just keeps wanting to go back!”
“I have eaten here many times! They are pretty consistent and have a good selection of food, but the actual standout (for me) is their bacon cheese burger it's phenomenal, and I'm not a burger kinda person! Stay away from the brisket tacos, though (dry and tasteless)!”
“Initially, I was a little disappointed. We decided to try Breakers because we wanted oysters, but the waitress explained that they were out because their shipment of oysters were dead, and they had sent them back. We had the shrimp brushetta, which was really good. We ordered the seared ahi and the red snapper, both of which were really good. We decided to share a brownie, which came out hot and delicious. Our waitress was on point and kept our glasses filled and made sure we had everything we needed. We even had one of the chefs come out and make sure we were enjoying our food. Even though I would have really enjoyed some oysters I am glad they sent them back and didn't try and serve them like some other places would have. I will definitely be back.”
“I just pulled into town the rave reviews have me very interested. It’s Sunday but also St. Patties Day so I’m not sure if they’re open I’ve tried calling but the listed number doesn’t seem to work. I’ll probably just drive over and see if they are open. I’ll update review if they’re open.”
“Love this place! Pizza is amazing and you can't leave without a cannoli. Love the folks there and we always enjoy how well they treat us. We think it's the best pizza in Tyler.”
“I tried the cronut and found it great. I have not heard of them.The Cronut (a portmanteau of croissant and donut) is a pastry created and trademarked in 2013 by the French pastry chef Dominique Ansel.[1][2] It resembles a doughnut and is made from croissant-like dough filled with flavored cream and fried in grapeseed oil.Pricy but filling and very tasty. It's the only place in Tyler.”
“I’m a burger hound. This is THE burger joint. I stop by once or twice a week and get the same exact meal every time. Whenever I call ahead, he hears my name and asks if I want my usual, then it’s ready to go when I get there. The cajun spices add the tiniest kick and powerful flavor to everything on the menu. Quit settling for overly processed, mass produced garbage and go get a quality meal with quality ingredients prepared by a quality man.”
“?From the first time we tried this amazing place, many months ago until now…. The management/service is consistently TOP NOTCH! The food is consistently finger licking delicious! And the atmosphere is absolutely contagious (in a good way) ? Tonight Kaitlyn helped us and she was friendly , welcoming and she gives GREAT drink suggestions (as always) We will be faithful Patrons of this place as long as it is here in Tyler, TX!!!Sincerely,James & Grace Guthrie”
“Hands down the best coffee in the Tyler area. The baristas are super friendly, knowledgeable, and very good at what they do. Latte art is on point and the espresso has great flavor. You can tell they really take pride here in what they make. I really can't say I've found a coffee shop this good outside the PNW. I would come here every day if I lived closer!”
“She is awesome I set with her all the ti.e it's the kitchen always get fajitas and so.e is tough ND dry ND burnt onions and bell pepper so.e.hard flour ”
“Food came out very fast and very hot despite the place being packed. Delicious. My brother is gluten free so he got naked strips. Manager on duty thanked us several times for our patience on the naked strips even though they took just a few minutes. Appreciate her attentiveness and could hear her positively encouraging the team in the back.Dietary restrictions: Can get gluten free naked strips, this doesn’t eliminate cross contamination so be aware.”

“IMO, this is some of the best BBQ in East Texas. I think we have been here around 12-15 times, and the barbeque is always cooked to perfection. I usually get the brisket sandwich, and my wife actually gets the tacos. The pulled pork, slaw, motherclucker, brisket, sausage, chicken, and turkey are delicious. They have a new shrimp taco that is really good, and they now have mac n' cheese, which is really good as well. Parking can be a pain, but you can also park around back. This place gets crowded, so I try to arrive before noon.Now that I think about it, I've never had the ribs and can't wait to try them next!✌️”
“We dined at Twelve for the first time tonight. We were celebrating the first anniversary of our first date. The steaks melted in our mouths. Sarah our server was totally fantastic! And the 5 layer cake was heaven. They totally made our special night that much more memorable.”
“We had Javi’s cater a family event this weekend. The food and service was excellent!!!! All guests said they were the best fajitas they’ve ever had. Steak was extremely tender and flavorful.. I highly recommend combo fajitas and queso blanco for your next party. Leah was awesome in coordinating everything and the young man delivering food was so nice and helpful. I’ve only completed a few reviews before, but I made sure to take the time to share how good this experience was. Thank you Javi’s! My fav in the restaurant is Javi’s Taxi and mini brisket tacos. ?”
“. Meat loaf was good as were the greens. Pork chop was thin and heavily breaded and possig rolled to make it look bigger. The breading came off in one lump and had no pork chop. Otherwise OK but overcooked and tough. Tasted ok”
“The food I had was tasty, especially the elote & guacamole. Actually, the best elote I've had. I was limited on what to get as there were limited plant- based entrées. If you are a meat eaters this is a 5 start place for you. However, not for vegetarians & especially not for vegans. They have a great festive atmosphere. There's plenty of seating for large parties.Vegetarian options: Limited to guacamole & elote dip appetizers. All salad include meat. You have to ask for no meat and still pay full price. When i asked about plant based/ vegetarian options, I was told to order the meat on the side. I ordered a bean burrito off menu and it was tasteless. Refried beans wrapped in a flour tortilla. The beans were similar to canned refried beans. This is not for plant- based eaters.Kid-friendliness: Festive, loud, large seating areas, kids menu”
